Our
present age is one of great uncertainty. There is a pervasive knowing
among hundreds of millions of people on this planet that we are moving
towards some great impending disaster or cataclysm. It is a collective
knowing that is primal and ancient in its instincts, like the way animals
behave before an earthquake. In addition, to those who are awake, there
is the knowledge of the gathering forces of evil. Historically, this kind
of sociological environment leads to a kind mass gambling mentality.

People
begin to throw the dice with their lives, marriages, and morals. They
do not know what tomorrow may bring, or even if there will be a tomorrow?
This was the climate of the French Revolution, where a topless woman rode
on horseback as a human symbol of the goddess of reason. French philosophers,
like Rousseau, fueled the flames of a humanist revolution which rejected
the notion of a God and His laws. Orgies were held in the sanctuaries
of the churches, and a bloody and violent revolution occurred. Thousands
were beheaded on the guillotines and the radical, Robespierre, began his,
“Reign of Terror.” The French philosophers and revolutionaries
overthrew the power of the church and replaced it with the power of man.
The idea of an irrational universe with no Personal God, just random chance
and luck, produces a fertile climate for totalitarianism.

America
and the world are following in the footsteps of the French Revolution,
where life has no meaning and we are here simply rolling the genetic dice.
In a world that has become a gambler’s paradise, it is clear that
an inner courage is being summoned and a call for a strength that is way
beyond our current human capacity will be needed for what lies ahead.

In Francis
Ford Coppola’s, “Apocalypse Now,” he depicted the chaos
of that time and we see that chaos, emerging again in our contemporary
films. What does the future hold and is it possible to predict outcomes?
The problem is that when we have conducted such an analysis and stared
into the chaos, it is possible to become overwhelmed by fear, as if one
stared into the great abyss and the rise of an Orwellian super-state.
The spiritual force of fear rips through our consciousness, like a paralyzing
electrical current that immobilizes, for that is its intent. But, one
does not have to surrender to the riptide of that fear. For there is a
greater force than fear and that is the force of faith. True faith overcomes
fear. True faith is not a mystical faith that offers the solace of a rabbit’s
foot or feeling lucky with the Great Casino in the Sky. It is a scientific
faith anchored in a specific event that occurred in real space-time-history.
That event is the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead in front
of numerous witnesses. That one single event changes all of human history
both past, present, and future. It is like walking in from the dark desert
of Darwinian evolutionary random chance into a great Las Vegas casino
all lit up. Yet, when you walk into the room the odds instantly change.
All of a sudden, you win at everything you play and the house can’t
stop it! It is not a matter of luck, the odds have actually, mathematically
changed.

As we
look into the future and look at our lives, we must remember that an event
occurred that changed our odds forever. For example, it is a scientific
fact that every man or woman who is born dies. But, through faith, the
odds have changed. You die, but then you resurrect from the dead, with
a new body. That should not happen! It is against house rules. The casino
owner is furious, because he bought your soul. But somebody more powerful
bought you back, with one condition. The condition is you have to accept
the fact that He bought you back. You have to believe it. The only way
the odds change and the house rules are suspended is when you believe
it.

That
may sound simplistic and something out of a Fairy Tale. The beautiful
princess kisses the frog and the frog is transformed into a handsome prince.
The simplicity in dealing with cosmic odds bothers a lot of people, it
actually offends them. But, you have to understand the mathematics of
what happens when you roll the dice. You are dealing with mathematical
law and physics. Like Albert Einstein’s E=mc2.

Whether
or not neutrinos are faster than light, Einstein’s equation released
the power of the nuclear bomb or nuclear power plant. Some believe that
the energy released could produce a Star Trek-type, warp drive technology.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ released infinite power into our seemingly
finite universe. The same power that created the universe at the beginning
of time is the same power that resurrected Christ from the dead. It is
the same power that will create the future.

The
reality is that the casino does not control the odds and their house rules
will vaporize at the speed of light due to the energy released in the
resurrection. Even the darkest projections concerning the human future
cannot withstand the power of this released energy to resurrect people
from the dead and create a new heaven and new earth. However, atomic energy
was only released when Einstein’s mathematical formula was applied.
In the same way the power of the resurrection can only be applied when
it is received into the human heart through belief. Its complexity lies
in its simplicity, the divine conundrum.

When
the cosmic dice are thrown, the odds are now fixed in your favor. You
resurrect from the dead and the future is changed. The pervasive darkness
is dissipated by the dazzling light of a wondrous future, a thousand times
brighter than the casino. A lot of people don’t know it yet, but
the house rules were broken a long time ago. All great gamblers understand
that beyond the roll of the dice, it’s about the math.
